She Became Rich After Divorce

Chapter 641: The President's Illegitimate Daughter

As if knowing what was on their minds, Master Glenn's icy gaze swept across the conference room. With a cold and frosty expression, he began speaking:

"According to the company's strategy, we were supposed to achieve a 5% increase in revenue in the first quarter. However, at the end of the first quarter, you handed me a negative result."

"I know that many of you may think it's just a 1% decrease in revenue, that it's not a big deal. But you are completely wrong. Going from a positive 5% to a negative 1% is a whole six-point difference!" "This means that we have lost 600 hundred million this quarter, and it also means that each of your year-end bonuses will be at least six figures less than originally planned. Do you still think it doesn't matter?" As his words fell, the managers and executives seated in the meeting room felt a tinge of pain.

A six-figure difference meant losing hundreds of thousands.

After a long silence, a brave female employee finally gathered the courage to speak up about the reasons behind her poor performance this quarter.

"Master Glenn, we didn't intend for it to turn out this way. Originally, according to our target plan, the investment in 'Moonlit Legend' was supposed to be 300 million, and the revenue needed to be over 500 million. But right after it finished filming, the female lead got caught up in a scandal, causing a decline in reputation."

They all dared not voice their anger.

And the actress in question was none other than Cynthia, the ex-girlfriend of Master Glenn.

To handle this situation, the company had spent a lot of money to build relationships, hiring the strongest PR team in the country, and spending tens of millions in the process.

When 'Moonlit Legend' was finally released, the lead actress's acting was painfully embarrassing, and the audience's criticisms were all over the place.

Although the ratings barely passed, they hadn't even made back the production costs.

It wasn't just 'Moonlit Legend,' Cynthia had filmed three other movies and television dramas one after another.

To only have a 1% decline, it was the result of their overtime and hard work.

Understanding the reasons behind the performance, Master Glenn's expression softened a little. He withdrew his gaze and signaled for his assistant to distribute the latest notices to everyone.

"If the artist isn't doing well, then replace them! Especially those high-paid artists. If they don't have the acting skills and popularity, they should be gone!"

"If the script isn't good enough, then study it carefully and produce an outstanding work."

"We need to spend money smartly. The production costs of TV dramas nowadays are a hundred times higher than in the 90s, yet the quality is nowhere near as good."

"It's because too much money is spent on the actors, with uneven distribution. How can we create good works in such circumstances?"

His words also made the leaders of various departments feel ashamed and helpless.

Next, the assistant placed the latest cost-cutting contract list in front of them, and to their surprise-everyone's hidden worry, Cynthia, the lead actress, was ranked at the top!

She was the highest-paid actress in the company, as well as the most difficult to handle with the awful attitude!

In the past, many producers and directors had complained about how difficult it was to work with Cynthia on set.

But because of her special relationship with the CEO, everyone dared not voice their anger and had to flatter her on the surface.

Now Master Glenn openly intended to terminate the contract with her, which truly caught them off guard.

"Master Glenn, when will your list take effect?"

An excited producer stood up from her seat. She had a good script and had picked out the actors. However, Cynthia heard it and approached her, claiming that she wanted to play the protagonist. Reluctantly, she had to give up the young actress she picked up.

Now, Master Glenn suddenly announced this major news, which was good for them since they wouldn't have to deal with Cynthia's demands anymore.

"It'll take effect when 'Lady Elizabeth' is finished. In the next quarter, I hope you can showcase your abilities and achieve some decent results."

"Yes, Master Glenn!"

The meeting concluded.

Master Glenn didn't leave immediately, and the people inside dared not stand up from their seats. They had to restrain their anxiety and continue sitting.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

At this moment, a young assistant respectfully announced, "Master Glenn, there's a call for you."

"Okay." Master Glenn got up and left, and the people in the meeting room breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, the lengthy critique meeting was over.

The Presidential Palace in Onistead.

A sleek black luxury car slowly parked in front of the ironwork carved gate. The attention-grabbing pure gold emblem and special license plate reading "A00000" on the front of the car were notable. en.s.net

The car door opened, and the dignified and imposing figure of the President appeared in this ancient building, commanding respect.

However, just as the staff of the Presidential Library prepared to personally welcome him, they were surprised to see the President bypass the car and open the door on the other side himself. They thought to themselves, maybe the First Lady and Miss Davidson were inside. Otherwise, who would have the privilege of having the President personally open the door for them?

To their surprise, a pair of slender legs, adorned in sheer stockings and supported by a pair of black stiletto heels, emerged from the car.

It was a display of dominance.

She wore a black chiffon dress, with a circle of shiny sequins embellishing the hem and waist. The vintage square neckline and cinched waist design accentuated her slender figure.

A khaki-colored short trench coat,

with flared sleeves, added a touch of

sexiness to her professional look. Looking up, her beautiful, glossy chestnut hair was braided into a fishtail braid that cascaded down the back of her head, revealing a stunning and delicate face. en.s.net

"We've arrived, Cheyenne. Please exit the car."

"Okay."

"Be careful."

Was this really their national leader, the President?

Usually, people delicately flattered him, but now he was so gentle and kind towards a young girl.

This made everyone curious about this girl's background.

Miss Davidson had never received such favor from the President before.

Could she be the President's long-lost illegitimate daughter?

But that seemed unlikely. There had been no gossip about the President for so many years, mainly because

the First Lady was a formidable ne

character, and it was unlikely for any woman to have an affair with the President under her watchful eye. en.s.net

Taking a closer look, this fairy-like girl in front of them was fair and tender, with delicate features. She radiated both beauty and innocence, not resembling the President much. Perhaps she took after her mother in terms of looks?
